Method
  1. 1

    Add brandy, Tawny Port, and egg yolk to a cocktail shaker without ice and dry shake vigorously for 10 seconds to emulsify the egg yolk.

  2. 2

    Add ice and shake again hard for a further 15 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Double-strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

  4. 4

    Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg over the surface.

From the Bartender

The dry shake before adding ice is essential - it emulsifies the egg yolk fully, producing a noticeably smoother, creamier texture that a wet shake alone cannot achieve.
